The Big Boo Cast, Episode 366

The Aggies and the Bulldogs have new head football coaches, so this week Melanie and I talk through some of the drama (on the A&M side, especially) surrounding the hiring process and how said drama led to some amusing social media moments. And of course we discuss the Iron Bowl and that last touchdown and how we relate on so many levels to the Auburn heartache.

There’s also a quick look back at our respective Thanksgivings, and it’s my turn for Five Favorites.

Hope y’all enjoy!

The Big Boo Cast, Episode 365

This week Melanie and I discuss what we won’t be cooking for Thanksgiving (here’s a hint: TURKEY), as well as the latest with our respective football programs and their coaching searches. We also break down my recent experiences at a couple of concerts, and Melanie shares about some of her post-live show introverting.

There’s some delightful bonus content at the end of the episode (an excerpt from our recent Patreon episode with Cole Cubelic), and it’s Melanie’s turn for Five Favorites.

Hope you enjoy and Happy Thanksgiving, y’all!

The Big Boo Cast, Episode 364

Melanie and I spent the end of the last week in Bryan / College Station for The Big Boo Bowl (and then the actual A&M / State football game), so between our live show, all our activities, and then – THEN – BOTH OF OUR HEAD COACHES GETTING FIRED IN A 24-HOUR PERIOD – we have more to talk about on this episode than we can possibly cover. We do our best, but there is going to be a follow-up episode on Patreon where we really dig into the football stuff. There’s just so much to process.

Also, we recap my first experience at Midnight Yell, and it’s my turn for Five Favorites.

Enjoy, everybody!

The Big Boo Cast, Episode 363

This week Melanie shares one of the more fascinating theories to date about the Aggies’ struggles on the football field (I believe we would both give this theory a giant side-eye), and she tells us about her keen deer-counting skills this past weekend. I recap another trip to MIssissippi as well as a full-to-the-brim weekend.

Also, we continue our Gift Guide this week, and it’s Melanie’s turn for Five Favorites (which, FYI, contains one of our favorite podcast moments ever).

The Big Boo Cast, Episode 362

This is an extra long episode, so you may want to grab a snack before you listen. Melanie and I talk about the recent death of my mother-in-law, Martha, as well as her very joyful funeral this past Monday. Naturally we discuss Melanie’s time in College Station (can y’all even believe that she went to College Station?!), and I share about some potato chips that may have changed my life a little bit.

Also, we kick off this year’s Holiday Gift Guide as we offer some suggestions for teenagers / college kids, and it’s my turn for Five Favorites. Needless to say, there are a lot of links, so be sure to stretch your clicking finger.

The Big Boo Cast, Episode 361

This week I recap the sweet, sweet agony of the Mississippi State / Arkansas football game (definitely grateful for the win, but my goodness it was painful), and Melanie shares all about her experience at Chi O Songfest in College Station. She also expresses her relief that the Aggies didn’t have a game this past weekend.

On top of that, I talk about my most recent Sephora trip with our friend Jamie, and it’s Melanie’s turn for Five Favorites.
